Dear Lockery family, we are so sorry to hear of mary's passing. We all loved her very much and will miss her the same.i loved Mary's passion for her family. She had many stories to tell about her life as a general's wife in the u s milatery and the proud mother of four wonderful children. Not to forget her beautiful grand children. Mary had a life not many people could even come close to having. She had stories of events all around the world and she enjoyed telling them. Mary was and is a beautiful person both inside and out. I loved her and will miss her. Thanks for all the many years as my client and friend. Love Diane, misty and Bernice
